lldb support. I'll be doing more testing & cleanup but I wanted to
get the initial checkin done.
This adds a new SBExpressionOptions::SetLanguage API for selecting a
language of an expression.
I added adds a new SBThread::GetInfoItemByPathString for retriving
information about a thread from that thread's StructuredData.
I added a new StructuredData class for representing
key-value/array/dictionary information (e.g. JSON formatted data).
Helper functions to read JSON and create a StructuredData object,
and to print a StructuredData object in JSON format are included.
A few Cocoa / Cocoa Touch data formatters were updated by Enrico
to track changes in iOS 8 / Yosemite.
Before we query a thread's extended information, the system runtime may
provide hints to the remote debug stub that it will use to retrieve values
out of runtime structures. I added a new SystemRuntime method
AddThreadExtendedInfoPacketHints which allows the SystemRuntime to add
key-value type data to the initial request that we send to the remote stub.
The thread-format formatter string can now retrieve values out of a thread's
extended info structured data. The default thread-format string picks up
two of these - thread.info.activity.name and thread.info.trace_messages.
I added a new "jThreadExtendedInfo" packet in debugserver; I will
add documentation to the lldb-gdb-remote.txt doc soon. It accepts
JSON formatted arguments (most importantly, "thread":threadnum) and
it returns a variety of information regarding the thread to lldb
in JSON format. This JSON return is scanned into a StructuredData
object that is associated with the thread; UI layers can query the
thread's StructuredData to see if key-values are present, and if
so, show them to the user. These key-values are likely to be
specific to different targets with some commonality among many
targets. For instance, many targets will be able to advertise the
pthread_t value for a thread.
I added an initial rough cut of "thread info" command which will print
the information about a thread from the jThreadExtendedInfo result.
I need to do more work to make this format reasonably.
Han Ming added calls into the pmenergy and pmsample libraries if
debugserver is run on Mac OS X Yosemite to get information about the
inferior's power use.
I added support to debugserver for gathering the Genealogy information
about threads, if it exists, and returning it in the jThreadExtendedInfo
JSON result.

These changes were written by Greg Clayton, Jim Ingham, Jason Molenda.
It builds cleanly against TOT llvm with xcodebuild. I updated the
cmake files by visual inspection but did not try a build. I haven't
built these sources on any non-Mac platforms - I don't think this
patch adds any code that requires darwin, but please let me know if
I missed something.
In debugserver, MachProcess.cpp and MachTask.cpp were renamed to
MachProcess.mm and MachTask.mm as they picked up some new Objective-C
code needed to launch processes when running on iOS.

- removed all gaps from the g/G packets
- optimized registers for x86_64 to not send/receive xmm0-xmm15 as well as ymm0-ymm15, now we only send ymm0-15 and xmm0-15 are now pseudo regs
- Fixed x86_64 floating point register gaps
- Fixed x86_64 so that xmm8-xmm15 don't overlap with ymm0-ymm3. This could lead to bad values showing in the debugger and was due to bad register info structure contents
- Fixed i386 so we only send ymm0-ymm7 and xmm0-xmm7 are now pseudo regs.
- Fixed ARM register definitions to not have any gaps
- Fixed it so value registers and invalidation registers are specified using register names which avoid games we had to play with register numbering in the ARM plugin.

325,000 breakpoints for running "breakpoint set --func-regex ." on lldb itself (after hitting a breakpoint at main so that LLDB.framework is loaded) used to take up to an hour to set, now we are down under a minute. With warm file caches, we are at 40 seconds, and that is with setting 325,000 breakpoint through the GDB remote API. Linux and the native debuggers might be faster. I haven't timed what how much is debug info parsing and how much is the protocol traffic to/from GDB remote.
That there were many performance issues. Most of them were due to storing breakpoints in the wrong data structures, or using the wrong iterators to traverse the lists, traversing the lists in inefficient ways, and not optimizing certain function name lookups/symbol merges correctly.
Debugging after that is also now very efficient. There were issues with replacing the breakpoint opcodes in memory that was read, and those routines were also fixed.

Make it configurable what to profile.
For Mac, we don't use the dirty page size yet and hence there is no need to gather that. This should be way better in not draining the battery since we are operating between 0% to 0.1% on the Mac after this change.

own port namepsace) as the thread identifier to using the system-wide
globally unique thread id as the thread identifier number.
MachThread.cpp keeps both the unique id and the mach port number
for each thread. All layers outside MachThread class use the unique
id with three exceptions: (1) Mach exceptions come in with the port
number (thread_port) which needs to be translated, (2) any calls to
low-level thread_get_state/thread_set_state/thread_suspend etc need
to use the mach port number, (3) MachThreadList::UpdateThreadList
which creates the MachThread objects gets the unique id and passes
it to the MachThread ctor as an argument.
In general, any time nub_thread_t is used, it is now referring to a
unique thread id. Any time a thread_t is used, it is now referring
to a mach port number. There was some interchangability of these
types previously. nub_thread_t has also been changed to a 64-bit
type which necessitated some printf specification string changes.
I haven't been able to test these changes extensively yet but want
to checkpoint the work. The scenarios I've been testing are all
working correctly so while there may be some corner cases I haven't
hit yet, I think it is substantially correct.

Fixed the 32, 16, and 8 bit pseudo regs for x86_64 (real reg of "rax" which subvalues "eax", "ax", etc...) to correctly get updated when stepping. Also fixed it so actual registers can specify what other registers must be invalidated when a register is modified. Previously, only pseudo registers could invalidate other registers.
Modified the LLDB qRegisterInfo extension to the GDB remote interface to support specifying the containing registers with the new "container-regs" key whose value is a comma separated list of register numbers. Also added a "invalidate-regs" key whose value is also a comma separated list of register numbers.
Removed the hack GDBRemoteDynamicRegisterInfo::Addx86_64ConvenienceRegisters() function and modified "debugserver" to specify the registers correctly using the new "container-regs" and "invalidate-regs" keys.

from a process and hooked it up to the new packet that was recently added
to our GDB remote executable named debugserver. Now Process has the following
new calls:
virtual Error
Process::GetMemoryRegionInfo (lldb::addr_t load_addr, MemoryRegionInfo &range_info);
virtual uint32_t
GetLoadAddressPermissions (lldb::addr_t load_addr);
Only the first one needs to be implemented by subclasses that can add this
support.
Cleaned up the way the new packet was implemented in debugserver to be more
useful as an API inside debugserver. Also found an error where finding a region
for an address actually will pick up the next region that follows the address
in the query so we also need ot make sure that the address we requested the
region for falls into the region that gets returned.

the appropriate registers for arm and x86_64. The register names for the
arguments that are the size of a pointer or less are all named "arg1", "arg2",
etc. This allows you to read these registers by name:
(lldb) register read arg1 arg2 arg3
...
You can also now specify you want to see alternate register names when executing
the read register command:
(lldb) register read --alternate
(lldb) register read -A
